8.3 Use of payment service providers (payment services)

- Apple Pay

If you choose the "Apple Pay" payment method from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, payment processing is handled via the "Apple Pay" function on your iOS, watchOS, or macOS device by charging a payment card stored with "Apple Pay." Apple Pay uses security features integrated into your device's hardware and software to protect your transactions. Authorizing a payment requires entering a code you previously set and verifying your identity using your device's "Face ID" or "Touch ID" function.

For payment processing purposes, the information you provide during the ordering process, along with details of your order, will be transmitted to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before transmitting it to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay. This encryption ensures that only the website where the purchase was made can access the payment information. After the payment has been processed, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm the successful payment.

If personal data is processed during the described transfers, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Apple retains anonymized transaction data, including the approximate purchase amount, date, and time, as well as whether the transaction was successful. Anonymization completely eliminates any possibility of identifying individuals. Apple uses this anonymized data to improve Apple Pay and other Apple products and services.

When you use Apple Pay on your iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase you made through Safari on your Mac, your Mac and the authorizing device communicate via an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you personally. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone's settings. Go to "Wallet & Apple Pay" and turn off "Allow Payments on Mac."

For payment processing purposes, the information you provide during the ordering process, along with information about your order, will be shared with Google. Google will then transmit your payment information stored in Google Pay to the originating website in the form of a unique transaction number, which is used to verify the payment. This transaction number contains no information about the actual payment details of your payment method stored in Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a unique numerical token. In all transactions via Google Pay, Google acts solely as an intermediary for processing the payment. The transaction is executed exclusively between the user and the originating website by debiting the payment method stored in Google Pay.

If personal data is processed during the described transfers, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Google reserves the right to collect, store, and analyze certain transaction-specific information for each transaction made through Google Pay. This includes the date, time, and amount of the transaction; the merchant's location and description; a description of the purchased goods or services provided by the merchant; photos you attached to the transaction; the name and email address of the seller and buyer or sender and recipient; the payment method used; your description of the reason for the transaction; and, if applicable, the offer associated with the transaction.

According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in proper accounting, verification of transaction data and the optimization and maintenance of the Google Pay service.
